My original plan was to use all Stampin' Up products and combine it with a colour challenge. In the end, I realized that I only had an hour to get the card made, so it would be easier to use paper from my scraps. That and a wonderful friend helped me with some organizing yesterday and many scraps were added to my accordian file, which is now stuffed to the gills, as the saying goes. I am DETERMINED to use up a bunch of scraps, so the only time I'm cutting into my SU dsp is when the challenge specifically calls for SU only.
The only non-scrap used was the base, which is 5.75x5.75. None of my scraps are big enough for card bases, and really, I also have so much unused cardstock that I'm good with that. I'm finding more and more that much of the cardstock I bought because it was on sale just isn't working with my pattern paper. So from now on I'm only buying 12x12 cardstock as I need it for projects, with the possible exception of neutrals like white, black and dark brown.
Card details:
Cardstock: Bazzill
Patterned Paper: 3 Bugs in a Rug
